Port n Catheter

The insertion of the port and catheter was a success today. The procedure lasted about 1 and 1/2 hours. The actual chest incision is rather painless, the one in my neck is "a pain in the neck"! It hurts and is really uncomfortable. Doc said it would be more painful because they had to do more tugging and pulling of the connective tissues to get the tubing in place. Thanks Mama for picking up the kids and watching them till we got home. I know they were in good hands!
I will post again after my first chemotherapy treatment on Friday. Pray I bounce back quickly.
